CP1 Week 6 Tutorial

Intro:

What are qualitative functional assessments?

 Janda hip movements, Quadruped, cat-cow,

What are quantitative functional assessments? (Give some examples)

 Endurance assessments
 Functional movement screen (FMS)-
 Selective functional movement screen (SFMA)

Why are each useful?

When do we use functional assessments? What information do they give us?

Class exercise:

Test Technique Clinical Implications

1. Deep Squat Movement Pattern
2. Hurdle Step Movement Pattern
Hips, knees and ankles remain aligned in the
sagittal plane Minimal to no movement is noted
in lumbar spine |Dowel and hurdle remain
parallel.
Hips, knees and ankles remain aligned in the
sagittal plane Minimal to no movement is noted
in lumbar spine | Dowel and hurdle remain
parallel
Lower limb instability
What areas are screened in this MP?
 Shoulders, scapular, thoracic spine
 Pelvis and core to control movement
Lower limb mobility issues
Poor stabilisation and control
Lower Limb Mobility, stability and functional
symmetry.
What areas are screened in this MP?
 Pelvis and core to control movement

Lower Limb mobility issues

Poor stabilisation and control

3. Inline Lunge Movement Pattern
Dowel contacts maintained | Dowel remains
vertical | No torso movement noted Dowel and
feet remain in sagittal plane | Knee touches
board behind heel of front foot
Lower limb Mobility, stability and functional
symmetry.
What areas are screened in this MP?
 Shoulders, scapular, thoracic spine
 Pelvis and core to control movement
Lower limb mobility issues
Poor stabilisation and control
 4. Shoulder Mobility Reaching Movement Fists are within one hand length Upper limb mobility
Pattern What areas are screened in this MP?
 Shoulders, scapular, thoracic spine

5. Active Straight-Leg Raise Movement
Pattern
6. Trunk Stability Push-up Movement
Pattern
7. Rotary Stability Movement Pattern
Vertical line of the malleolus resides between
mid- thigh and ASIS The non- moving limb
remains in neutral position
The body lifts as a unit with no lag in the spine
To score a 3 - Neutral cat dog position on all 4s,
bring ipsilateral elbow and knee to touch each
other. Repeat on both sides.
To score a 2 - If cannot perform above then in
same position try to bring elbow in and touch
contralateral knee. If cannot perform patient
scores 1
Lower Limb
Ability to disassociate lower extremities while
maintaining stability in the pelvis and core
Hamstring, gastroc/soleus flexibility whilst
maintaining stable pelvis and active extension of
the opposite leg
What areas are screened in this MP?
 Upper body strength
 Core stability
Poor reflex stabilisation of trunk and core
Compromised scapular and hip stability
Limited knee, hip, spine and shoulder mobilit

Test Dylan Jason Jim Zac

1. Deep Squat Final 2 Score: 3 Score: 1 Score: 1
Comments: heels slightly Comments: perfect Comments: femur did not Comments: torso leaning
elevated, knees aligned, technique go below knee line forward, lumbar flexion
Looked stable -ZW / JAS
-Jim
2. Hurdle Step: R) 3 R) score 3 3 right and left R) Score: 3
 Left L) Score: 2 – lower limb
 Right L) 3 L) score 2 - Left leg internally Fluid in all motions alignment is lost (1)
rotated and knee pushed
Comments: solid through all outwards to get over bar
 motions
-Jim
3. Inline Lunge R)3 (2) Right and left 3 R) 3
 Left R) - 3 L) 3
 Right L)2 – knee poking out L) - 2 = unstale on lunge Fluid in motion
slightly.
-Jim
4. Shoulder Mobility R) 2 L)-2 – bottom hand limited Right 2 R)1
 Left range Left 1 L)1
 Right L)1 Bottom hand limited R)-3
range Reduced rom in both
-Jim
5. Active SLR R) 2 L)- 1 1 on both sides – R) 1
 Left R)- 1 contralateral knee raised at L) 1
 Right L) 1 ( knee bend, Rleg slight Both sides contralateral 60-70 degrees of hip flexion
lift knee lifts at around Tight hip flexors lol
